This is the OCA's largest SIG. This
is a group for everyone interested in understanding, learning,
improving, helping others in the art and science of all forms
of Astro Imaging (Film and Video/CCD photography)

Activities

Meetings --
This group holds monthly meetings in Irvine (see meeting info).
You are welcome to come and sit in on our meetings
which include presentation of the latest images
taken by members as well as discussions of equipment
and imaging techniques. Beginners and experts are
equally welcome!

Field Trips --
Normally you find
many members of this group at the OCA's
Anza site, but group members also informally
organize field trips to dark sites for imaging
or to special facilities such as professional
observatories. Read about our recent trip
to visit
Palomar Observatory.

Conferences -- Members of this SIG
were responsible for planning and running
the OCA's 2002, 2004, 2006 AstroImage conference.
